What: When using the app it regularly asks to restart

Why is this a problem?: Spotify, safari, every other app I have on my computer does not have this constant request to restart. Doesn’t matter if I leave them open, ignore them, whatever. They restart when I feel like it and do not constantly nag.

What might cause this?: I assume this is some short lived user token, I don’t care, extend the time length on the token or make it configurable. I’m paying. I could pay someone else for the same content, so why not make the user experience more attractive. Hell I’m only using Deezer because I disagree with Spotify’s AI music policy but Spotify didn’t nag me every time I use the app to restart.

Fix:
1. I tell the app ‘no i do not want to restart right now’
2. App does not ask again to restart for a week

Thanks for your feedback and apologies for the inconvenience.
I had passed all the info to our devs now.

This happens to me, a lot, too. Not just on MacOS; I have Windows as well. I just thought it was the app updating, but it’s happening on far too much of a regular basis for that. And now, the restart button doesn’t work.


Pointless me re-installing as I know it will come back soon enough and I’ll back where I started. Glad I found this, as I think this is a real issue that needs to be looked into by the devs. 
 

A point to note though, it is ONLY the desktop app on MacOS and Windows. I do t have this experience on Android or iOS. I also have a Linux machine but I’m not sure you have an officially supported version for that, do you? And I don’t use that one regularly
